most of the wards up to 1880 O'Clock

called out. There are five tickets in
the field, regular republican. silk
cratic, regular labor and Glesson labor.

missioners and an adoption of the jury
commission law.
CHICAGO, Nov. San extra edition
of the daily News says: The latest re-
ports from the polling places es-
tablish, beyond a reasonable doubt,
the fact that the jury commission law
is defeated by a large majority. As to
the general results of the election it
may be said that the Republican
ticket, as a whole, is successful, and it
is not probable that any one of the
party S. candidates is defeated. Lake

decided against the annexation.
